The Social Network Review


The movie in 1 word was AWESOME! I don't want to oversell the product here, and just let you guys down, when the movie hits theaters here, but you have to seriously watch the movie.

I know the movie was a documentary, and I thought it was, you know, made like a documentary-ish type. Boy I was wrong.

For those that didn't know, The Social Network is documentary movie about the founder of Facebook.com, who is also the youngest billionaire to date. It tells the story of Mark Zuckerberg, and how he stole, cheats, even lie to get Facebook up and running today. However, there are a lot of drama, some are legal and pretty hard to understand while sometimes it's so screwed up that you just feel you want to go and punch Mark's face (seriously).

Don't get me wrong here, it's not like he's the bad guy..well maybe he is, but he's doing it because he was dump by his girlfriend, yes that's right. Although, do you know the real Zuckerberg didn't like the movie because of this?(I don't know if it's true), but it did shows that he really love Facebook. hehe

Anyway, the movie was great thanks to the great actors and actress in the movie. Jesse Eisenberg acting was top notch, I don't know if the real Mark is like that, but if he was, than he's an asshole. No really, he is. This is why the tag line for this movie is "You don't get to 500 million friends without making a few enemies", well said. Why is he an asshole? Well one, he disses his girlfriend, two, he screwed his best friend, and three he doesn't give a f**k. Hahaha

Nonetheless, Facebook has become the most popular social network next to myspace and friendster. Watching this movie, will tell you how the social network become so popular, it's all about exclusivity. I don't want to spoil the movie for you, so you have to watch to understand.

It's a solid 4/5 stars. Watch it when it hit theaters near you.



the song in the trailer is from Creep-Radiohead, but was sung by Scala and Kolacny Brothers, here they are live.
